EleMetals: Death Metal Death Match, an action game developed by Wallride and published by RedDeer Games, is due to launch on Switch eShop this year.

Here’s an overview and trailer of the game, courtesy of RedDeer Games:

Pokemon Masters EX has just added a couple of new Sinnoh-related events to the game.

A number of new deals are up and running on the North American Switch eShop. These include Axiom Verge, Blue Fire, Slime Rancher, Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion, and more.

Here we are again talking about Xenoblade Chronicles – this time with something a little bit different. Instead of the usual ten-minute video we usually share on Sunday, this is more of a discussion. I’ve had a desire to talk more in-depth about the franchise because there’s so much to discuss about these complex games.

To help me on this task, our reporter Nicolas joined me in an hour-long Xenoblade discussion where we talk about our experiences with the series, specific plot points and what we expect from the future third game in the franchise. If you are interested, feel free to check it out in the video down below.

If, like me, you grew up when the Wii was current, you no doubt put some time in on Wii Sports. Packed in with each new console here in the west, the title was a lot of players’ first introduction to the console’s motion controls, as well as their first time being able to engage with family members who wouldn’t usually think of playing video games. Wii Sports itself became a system-seller and its popularity is still raging to this day, with many homes still dusting off their Wii for play sessions at family gatherings to entertain kids and adults alike. Now with Switch’s success, a new entry in the series has arrived – but will it reach the acclaim of its predecessors?
